[Milestone XT720 General] bayernfan94:
Hello, I'm new in this forum - and i fell in love with the xt720 :)

The test shows, that the xt720 gets ~1200 in quadrant benchmark ,

that means it is as good as the motorola defy right ?

Maybe I'm going to buy a motorola xt720, do you think its the right decision ?

(will not buy defy - because of speaker problem ..)

Wikipedia says, that the Omap3440 has :

OMAP3440	800 MHz - ARMv7 - ARM Cortex-A8 -PowerVR SGX530 - is this right ?

Because I want to buy a phone, which is good in gaming - and the defy is good,

but the xt720 has the same Gpu (?) (powerVr..)

Anyone tested games with overclock ?

Thank you - and sorry for my bad english :D
[Milestone XT720 General] acclaimmastr:
Android 2.1 vs Dexters' Froyo 2.2.1 without overclocking

(3 benchmarks average)

Stock XT720 Android 2.1 @ 550mhz

Quandrant: 480

XT720 Android 2.2.1 @ 550mhz

Quandrant: 850

Android 2.2 is twice faster than 2.1 ...

I also made these tests on HTC Legend with Froyo 2.2 results about 200% faster again.
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Do you happen to know if you had the egl.cfg tweak? Was it just Dexter's without any tweaks.
[Milestone XT720 General] crescal:
i agree that 2.2.1 is much faster than 2.1

but i got lags after 30 hours of up time...and i have checked that the ram available dropped from 50 mb to 30 mb. all the 3 roms are tested, xav's and khal's seem to be better but the lags were noticeable.

well the solution is very simple -- reboot and a snappy xt720 will be back. but it seems quite strange that the phone need to be constantly reboot...

anyone else experience this and anyone got a better solution?
[Milestone XT720 General] acclaimmastr:
No tweaks added.
[Milestone XT720 General] teruyume:
I own both the defy(tmo 3.4.2-107 froyo) and xt720(dexter 1.3), to be honest Defy has a better GPU even though model number are the same. I experience very obvious lag playing St. Patrict's day Angry on XT720, but Defy is smooth. And Defy comes with 512 Ram, roughly 120MB is always free.

Battery life on Defy is much better, partly due to larger cell. maybe 45nm processor also helped, this I am not sure.

Strangely the Defy 5MP camera has better image quality compare to 8MP Xt720. 2 images of the same print were taken oat about 5 feet distance, setting are all auto. Characters appears less blur on the one taken by Defy.
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
This isn't so strange, actually. An 8MP sensor wastes more space behind the lens on circuitry. The circuitry for each pixel subtracts from the area that can be photosensitive. The per-pixel circuitry is pretty much fixed in size. So 8MP means 3M more circuits than 8MP but in the same area. Thus for the same size sensor, a 5MP sensor has less overall area devoted to circuitry and more devoted to detecting photons compared to 8MP.
[Milestone XT720 General] bayernfan94:
Thank you for your answers,

but I'm already going to buy the xt720 :).

But I love to play games, and I need somebody who overlocked his device an played some of these 3d games (asphalt 5, modern combat..)

I have to know if these games work on this device :o:o

The defy is a bit to expensive (it is now on ~ 310 €)

and the speaker problem is a bit too strange for me :D,

i know it is solved - but i dont know how to ..

Thank you for all your answers :)

Is this with the normal 2.1 ? - Or did you flash it ?

(sorry I'm new with android .. i had symbian s60v5 before .. what is OC ? - Overclocked ?)

- Is there a pre-rooted EC10 already built?
[Samsung Mesmerize] bdemartino:
If you're going to mod the phone then don't bother with the kies update, go right to the odin EA10 and then flash pick and pack. If you just want root and stock 2.2 official - get the kies update and use super one click after (assuming that still works to root)

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mkb0506:
I have one of the older NAND rom's installed and i want to try the new one's but seemingly they are to be installed in a whole other way than i can remember.

And im extremely confused with all the different guides and what not.

I have gotten so far and installed the latest MAGLDR but from this point on im lost.

It seems my SD card isnt formatted correctly, and i need some extra partitions on the card? some use ext2 and other 3 and 4. AAAAAAARGH

Also im not sure what rom to choose so i picked one of those who had most replies :D thought they would be the most interesting. one of the hyperdroid maybe?

please help a clueless tard :P
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:
Yeah all of the new ROM's use something called Clockwork Recovery. That's easy. All you do is flash that via USB Flasher in MAGLDR. After that you put the .zip on your SD card and flash it via Clockwork.

What you're referring to is partitioning your SD card for Apps2SD/Data2SD.

There's a guide here on how to do that. :)
[XPERIA X8 General] pontneddfechan:
Ok, I know there are websites that unlock X8's for good old reddies, but just a thought that i want to see if any one has tried.

If you root the phone and get nandroid or some other back up software and restore to another radio image will this unlock the phone, or even a custom rom complete with radio spl's? or is it something harder than this?

Thanks in advance

Daniel
[XPERIA X8 General] LuisDias:
Nop.. using a different rom wont unlock your phone.. the sim lock is on kernel, and to modify kernel bootloader needs to be cracked.. devs are trying to bypass bootloader, but still i think it won't be possible to unlock..

(Correct me if i am wrong..)

Sorry if my english isn't right

[XPERIA X8 General] stevicc:
devs have already bypassed the bootloader on x10. but we still have to wait for our x8.
[G2 and Desire Z General] ryohazuki:
So I realize this is a bit stupid being I'm posting it in the G2 forums so it might be a bit biased and the fact that the G2 is a native android phone and the hd2 isn't. The only thing is, I'm on T-mobile and theres no native 4.3 inch android phone YET. I know the G2 has a better processor in it if i'm not mistaken, but I've been wanting a 4.3 inch phone for awhile. I also noticed that the HD2 has more development behind it in terms of roms compared to the G2 and I was wondering why exactly that was? The only thing I like about the G2 is the better specs and the keyboard. If someone can help steer me in the right direction, i'd appreciate it!

Thanks!
[G2 and Desire Z General] jecustoms:
If i'm not mistaken- g2 has cpu of 800mhz against 1000mhz in hd2.

Well, development of hd2 is widely spread because it is winmo based device, which allowed the developers a freedome for developing. There are about 7 OS which loaded through haret(winmo emulator).

I was a user of hd2 and changed it to g2 and i can't say which is better, i like both of them)
[G2 and Desire Z General] ryohazuki:
Yeah but the gpu in the G2 is better than the hd2. I was just wondering what everyone else thought and others opinions before i make my decision
[G2 and Desire Z General] MacaronyMax:
Its also New generation vs old generation... The G2 Is faster and much more overclockable :D

Depends what you want to do really :D The only like OS you will be getting for now on your G2 is android whereas the HD2 can Daul boot WinMo 6. Windows Phone 7. Ubuntu. Android... and someother versions of linux.... I think meego too :p
[G2 and Desire Z General] redpoint73:
CPU clock doesn't come close to telling the whole story. The CPU on the Vision is a newer generation of Snapdragon than the one on the HD2. Different fabrication process and newer GPU. Even though the CPU on the Vision is clocked at 800 Mhz, it outbenches all the 1GHz "older" gen Snapdragon phones, such the Nexus One (same proc as the HD2) and EVO 4G, as well as other proc types, like the Galaxy S. I think only the Desire HD (same generation of CPU as the Vision, but at 1 GHz) and newer phones (Atrix, Nexus S) have benched faster than the CPU on the Vision.

The HD2 has been around a long time, almost a year and a half (ancient in smartphone terms). That is another part of the reason why there are more ROMs for the HD2. Also, Windows Mobile is older, and has had more development. WM is also outdated trash. At this point, I would not use my money on a phone whose native OS is so far behind the alternatives. Which brings us to another reason there are so many ROMs on the HD2. With WM as the native OS, its no surprise that people have been scrambling to put almost anything else on the phone besides the stock ROM. But that is a completely biased opinion, as I have no personal experience with the HD2. But I do own a Touch Pro 2, which I used for a year, and needed to have a custom ROM just to be usable. The TP2 has lower specs than the HD2 for sure, but ditching WM nightmare for Android has been unbelievable, and I wouldn't go back if you paid me. Saying the ability to dual boot WM is not a "pro" by any stretch of the imagination, IMO.

The stock ROM on the G2/Desire Z is actually pretty darned good. That's part of the reason why there has not been as much development on the Vision. It just works as is. Also, it seems that developers were holding back a bit, since Gingerbread came out just a couple months after the phone was released. Now that Gingerbread is stable via CM7, developers have been building on that and the ROM development has really started hitting critical mass. Just in the past couple weeks there has been something like 5 (or more) new ROM series hitting the Vision, with more likely on the way.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jecustoms:
but there are some programs on winmo wich do not have analogue on android or ios- what means for some people dual boot is an argumen "for"
[G2 and Desire Z General] Skellyyy:
I had a HD2 for a while and I've just got a Z. I've enjoyed using both but I definitely rather the Z. Tbh all the development on the HD2 is for a reason. They're all trying to get the most stable Android ROM out. I found usually all of the roms to be very similar in speeds and looks etc.

Even the fastest ROMs I didn't find as fast as my Z and Istill have yet to root it and OC and flash CM7 and the like.

The HD2 does have the ability to boot multiple OS's but if you do that I find it to be even slower as one needs to be booted via the SD card and unless you have a good class 10 card it won't be fast. I also found over time the ROM's on my HD2 were getting more and more sluggish which lead me to keep having to flash roms.

The added bonus of the Z is ofcourse the keyboard. ;)

I don't even notice the difference in screen size. :eek: I enjoy the 3.7 more aswell because its more comfortable to hold in hand and you can touch everywhere on the screen without having to reposition your hand. :p
[G2 and Desire Z General] jecustoms:
every day i find people who switched from hd2 to desire z :p
[G2 and Desire Z General] Skellyyy:
The keyboard is just so nice to have after using a touch screen for so long. :D
[G2 and Desire Z General] elfysrfr:
I have and regularly use both hd2 and the g2. The g2 is far more powerful cpu and gpu wise plus its more stable since it is an android native device. The HD2 is a great phone too. It has an awesome screen, multiple OS's and much more development (as its a much older device). Its lacks the power of the g2/vision but is still an awesome device.

Its all a matter of price and personal preferance.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jecustoms:
Indeed :D
[G2 and Desire Z General] atlp99:
I have both HD2 and a G2. One difference is the touchscreen is better in the G2, both better multitouch and better responsiveness.
[G2 and Desire Z General] jecustoms:

[G2 and Desire Z General] caros_hsu:
If you like the keypad,then g2.
[G2 and Desire Z General] cowboyintx:
I had the hd2 since july 10 ..in that time frame the phone was replaced a total of 11 times..i had flashed android on it but somethings didnt work..but it was ok running android..it would be great if android came stock on it.as for the g2 i finally got t-mobile to upgrade me for free to the g2..i love it!!it is running stock rom 2.2 and will be getting update to 2.3..very fast and stable..has wifi hotspot,tethering and wifi calling..

Get the g2 .it is so worth it:d

I had tried running clockworkmod earlier with some other recovery.

So my bml7 is showing the contents of clockworks partition. So, not sure if bml7 is param.fs, but it gets written to by clockworkmod!!
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] keyurkarnik:
Just checked on a friend's brand new 551.

The bml7 partition is empty :

All FF FF FF FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF s
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] keyurkarnik:
Checked on another phone.

By default bml7 is empty (all FFs)

Seems that all of us have tried some stuff like clockwork, so the data on bml7
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] keyurkarnik:
Does anyone have a working flash_image binary (that works on 551)?

I am trying to flash my partitions with a few changed images, but unable to flash
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] WillingMagic:
Maybe you friend have different model or maybe branded roms have different layout? I use latest open rom XWKA7 from Samsung. If anybody use those rom please upload your bml partition.

I tried build clockworld recovery, but may build don`t work, I can`t flash it on my phone. I also tried upload moddified PDA.tar.md5 via Odin, but also hang when i tried. But good news I didn`t bricked my phone:D .
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] keyurkarnik:
Nope.... checked with another phone at a Samsung showroom.

bml7 is confirmed to be blank - all FFs

We probably had bml7 with some stuff because of running Clockwormod.

Also, as you have issues in booting with your image, how about taking another route?

Lets try to modify basic things like default.prop or init scripts and rewriting to the partition. We could progress from there.

I have tried to do the same, but flash_image does not work. If you have a working version for bml, let me know
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] WillingMagic:
I out for few days because my laptop power supply is broken.

IMPORTANT:

Please any GT-I5510 user dump bml6 and bml7. How to dump:

You need root your phone via oneclickroot. And then via any terminal or adb shell

su

dd if=/dev/block/bml7 of=/sdcard/bml7.img

dd if=/dev/block/bml6 of=/sdcard/bml6.img

Then copy to your computer and upload.

Add info about your model and country/world region.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] kraka23:

Anyone know how to enter in Bootloader - Fastboot mode?. I tried with "W" + Power but don't work.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] keyurkarnik:
For bootloader :

1. Attach usb cable. Start adb.

adb shell

su

reboot bootloader

2. Start terminal

su

reboot bootloader

3. Shut down phone

Press 'Q' key on keypad + Power button

Keep pressed till phone restarts
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] kraka23:
Thanks buddy. But...

1. I haven't root access in adb shell i don't know why. I rooted my phone with Super One Click 1.7 but don't work adb shell with root permissions unless i click in "Root Shell" in the same program. In this case, adb shell is rooted but temporarily, not permantly.

2. In terminal i have root access but when i execute "su" and "reboot bootloader", the phone reboot normally as if nothing had happened. I guess the bootloader is locked.

3.When i push Q + power, the phone enter in Download mode, not in Bootloader mode.

I guess the phone is not full rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] keyurkarnik:
551 does not have fastboot

So, reboot bootloader opens up download mode!!

The "Bootloader" mode is not present.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] WillingMagic:
You successful rooted your phone, on official roms you can`t get root access via adb direct, only indirect way via su, all apps which need root works fine. I don`t think the bootloader is protected or encrypt. Some phones doesn`t support fastboot, because they use different block system like Callisto. Fastboot require mtd block, but Callisto use bml and stl blocks, so fastboot can`t work.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] kraka23:
Thank you very much for your answers!. Stupid fastboot.....

View bml dump contents?

Hey guys! Thanks to the good help of kraka23 and the forum I have succesfully rooted my phone and (think) that I have dumped my bml6 and bml7, via the "dd" shell command WillingMagic provided, correctly. I will be uploading these files soon but I would like to see what are the contents. I know this is the goal of the thread so I was wondering how you guys do to examine the files I've ran "file" on them with the following results

me@myPC:~/5510Part$ file bml6.img

bml6.img: data

me@myPC:~/5510Part$ file bml7.img

bml7.img: DOS executable (device driver)

I've tried mounting the files with no success I guess they are not common file partitions. I just want to take a quick look to check that there's no sensitive information in those files.

I'm not a complete newbie to linux but still my knowledge is fairly limited.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] :
I don`t think using "file" to identify content of block memory is good idea.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] :
I think we are clear about bml 6 and bml 7 they are not important, usualy clear partition.

Currently I need bml5, bml11 and bml14.
